Emotional Rollercoaster-17 weeks

Can I just say holy cow of pregnancy emotions. This week has been my first week where I have been overly sensative and my poor husband and brother (who lives with us). I totally freaked out the other so upset and felt so, well just like no one cared. It's really funny now looking back but at the time I thought no one cared about anything I did. So what cured my emotional freak out, a nice shopping trip to Target. I didn't spend as much money as I could have and as I wanted. But I got some needed things, and looked at the way cute baby stuff. It's hard to not go out and shop shop shop!
Also this week I have started sleeping with a pillow between my legs for more comfort. I am thinking I need to invest in the body pillows, Eva swears by them.
I am going to try to record things on a regular basis so I can remember what the pregnancy is like. It already has gone by way fast and I cant believe I am 17 weeks, almost 5 months. Its good though, because I don't feel so bad about getting bigger. I haven't weighed myself since the end of Nov so we will see at the end of this month how many pounds I have packed on.

Are you talking about the pregnant pillow thing? I swear by them and I didn't even have one. I vow to get one for next pregnancy. The sleeping only gets worse!

I have breakdown moments every once in a while too. Thank goodness Michael knows how to make me smile. I agree, it is so funny to look back on what made me so upset! Most of the time my reasons are ridiculous! But, that's life...and sometimes it just feels good to cry!

Your belly is so cute, by the way! I am so happy for you Ash, and I love you!

My husband bought me a body pillow called the snoogle. I love it it curves like a c to fit in-between your legs and also under your head. I think he got it at babies r us. I have been measuring and recording everything. It is already fun to look back and see how much my body has changed. Good luck with the emotions, I know how you feel... At least we have a really good excuse right???

Hang in there girly, there will be more good days then bad and it will all be worth it in the end. I loved the body pillow, so I suggest getting one, because you will need it as your cute tummy grows. Don't worry about the pounds you pack on. It's just the baby and it will all go away in 149 days. Love ya!
